20080253014 | Magnetic disk controller and method - Among other disclosed subject matter, a magnetic disk controller can include an index detecting unit to detect an index of the magnetic disk, an error check code generating unit to, after the index detecting unit detects the index, generate a first error check code for first write data based on the first write data and a first physical address of a first sector subsequent to the detected index, and a writing control unit to cause the first error check code generated by the error check code generating unit, the first write data and the first physical address to be written into a second sector subsequent to the first sector. | 10-16-2008 |
20100277823 | MAGNETIC DISC CONTROLLER AND METHOD - A magnetic disk controller includes a first buffer that includes a first storage area that stores former portions of pieces of writing data, and a second storage area that stores latter portions of pieces of writing data; an encoding unit that encodes a former portion of the first piece of writing data; a second buffer that stores the encoded former portion of the first piece of writing data; and a buffer control unit that writes the encoded former portion of the first piece of writing data into a first sector of the magnetic disk. The encoding unit encodes the latter portion of the first piece of writing data. The second buffer stores the encoded latter portion of the first piece of writing data. The buffer control unit, writes the encoded latter portion of the first piece of writing data into the first sector of the magnetic disk. | 11-04-2010 |
20130013979 | MAGNETIC DISK CONTROLLER TO PROCESS PLURAL DATA SETS FOR RECORDING ONTO A MEDIUM - Methods and apparatus describe processing of data for recording to a storage device. An apparatus includes, in at least one aspect, a plurality of buffers and circuitry configured to encode data stored in one buffer of the plurality of buffers concurrently with storing data in another buffer of the plurality of buffers and to write the encoded data from the one buffer to a storage device concurrently with encoding the stored data in the other buffer. | 01-10-2013 |
20130262965 | MAGNETIC DISC CONTROLLER AND METHOD - An apparatus includes, in at least one aspect, a plurality of buffers and circuitry configured to store encoded data in one buffer of the plurality of buffers concurrently with storing other data in another buffer of the plurality of buffers and to write the stored encoded data from the one buffer to a storage device concurrently with storing encoded other data in the other buffer, replacing the stored other data in the other buffer. | 10-03-2013 |

20100247124 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus includes plural image holding members; an intermediate transfer material; a transfer unit that transfers the toner images onto a recording medium; a density control toner image creating unit that creates a density control toner image at a constant position on each of the image holding members; a density detection unit that detects density of the density control toner image transferred onto a non-image region; and a creation timing control unit that controls timing of creating the density control toner image to create the density control toner image in the non-image region of the intermediate transfer material at a position where a length obtained by integrally multiplying the length obtained by adding the non-image region to the image region along the moving direction of the intermediate transfer material becomes equal to a length obtained by integrally multiplying the circumferential length of the image holding member. | 09-30-2010 |
20130276677 | LOADING STRUCTURE - A loading structure includes a bottom plate on which an object is placed; a support stand that supports the bottom plate from below the bottom plate; a pair of first poles that stand on the support stand; a pair of second poles that stand on the support stand; a first beam located on a far side of the loading structure and extending in a left-right direction, the first beam being fixed to upper portions of the pair of second poles; a pair of second beams extending toward the far side, a distance between inner surfaces of the pair of second beams being larger than a distance between outer surfaces of the pair of second poles; and a supporting member that stands on the support stand on the far side, the supporting member supporting a far-side surface of the object placed on the bottom plate. | 10-24-2013 |
20130315614 | POWER CONTROL SYSTEM AND POWER CONTROL METHOD - A power control system includes an image forming apparatus, a power calculating unit, and a condition controller. The image forming apparatus operates using power, forms an image corresponding to image information in a first operation mode, and enters a second operation mode in which power consumption is smaller than the first operation mode when the image forming apparatus satisfies a specific transition condition. The power calculating unit calculates power supplied from a power supplying unit. The condition controller controls the specific transition condition for the image forming apparatus in accordance with the power calculated by the power calculating unit. | 11-28-2013 |
